The Concert!!

Oh man, what an experience!

It was crazy, übercool, magnificent, awesome, just pure gold!!

The audience was huge, we were fully charged, just couldn't wait to get on stage!

We saw people enjoy every minute of every song, hands in the air, diving, and the guys did an amazing job ofcourse, always, not to mention the crew who made everyone sound so good without practically any soundcheck.

One of the best gigs of my life, an unforgettable audience, the whole experience, it's beyond words really.

Such an amazing night. 

I will never forget this. Never.

Here we are, getting in the mood on the main street of the village Wacken...

...where we bumped into some familiar looking look-alikes!

Behind the stage!

I thought we did a good job with the make-up! And fun it was too!

The gig:

At the backstage area:

The cake!

Us girls <3 !!!

The Slayer-gig, oh the amount of charisma!

We partied the night away and went to Hamburg the next day.

It was a perfect day of wandering around, laughing, giggling, living last night's hype all over again!

I felt like my heart would come out of my chest!

Such a happy day!!

A million times thank you my dear friends!!!!

Wacken, Baby!!

Hallo aus Hamburg!

We're here for our final leg of the grand Apocalyptica/Avanti!-tour!

It's totally crazy: the whole festival is sold out, 75 000 tickets, and we'll play on the same stage with the legendary Slayer!!

They play after us, so we'll definitely go and see them!

The sun is shining here too and soon we start heading for the festival area.

But first us girls have a make up-session. Yesterday we went to Stockmann's MAC-department to get some tips, check out the pics!

Let's see if we can pull that off ourselves!

Music, check

Timetable, check

Nails, check

A moment just for us after the rehearsal!

And here's the new look!

I wanted something between Amy Winehouse and Adele.

My beautiful friend had the smokey eye, gorgeous!!

And here we are, Hamburg, ready for an awesome day!

I'll give you a full report later, oh this is so exiting!!

Summer!

Sweet friends, hellohello!

So nice to be back here again!

The beginning of the summer was filled with work and poor weather but now it's the perfect holidays, yay!

And I'm back in Berlin!!

Yes I am!

I don't know what's going to happen, I have a feeling this city will blow up on Sunday weather Germany wins the World Championship in football or not.. 

And there's Berlin Fashion Week going on too! Loads of sideshows and events! 

But first here's a few pics here and there:

Cable Factory, Avanti! and Porvoo, this was such a great week!

We had time to sit in cafés too...

The old tea house Helmi inspired us to take pictures like they used to!

Sannäs mansion

A moment before everybody departed, oh how wonderful the whole week was!

And now:

A Berlin mojito...oijoijoi!

I'll keep you posted!!

At Work...

It's a definitive sign of the approaching summer when the sun is shining, the temperature starts rising, and we're sitting indoors recording!

The concert season has come to its' end, but the season continues with a huge amount of concentration with well-deserved breaks! Of which we know how to enjoy: being outdoors!

Oh how heavenly the sun feels! 

Cherry blossoms and overalls, a guarantee of a good day!

...and indoors...

At lunch break:

The spring sky as its' bluest!

...and the rest of the trip!

Home sweet home!!

And the blessed sunshine!

I'm so happy to be back in my sweet husband's arms, safe and sound! And our sweet home, oh, how I missed all this!!

But at the same time there's a huge hole in my heart. I miss our gang, the girls, sweet sisters, and all the handsome fellas too ofcourse!!

This emptyness will be with all of us for a while, but at the same time it will bond us forever. It already has!

A once-in-a-lifetime experience of which I'm so grateful! Thank you all sweeties, we'll keep up with the sparkling traditions for sure! 

BIG hugs and even bigger kisses to you all!!

Kaunas was so pretty!

And warm too: I'd forgotten what +16 degrees C feels like!

Portraits!

Sunbathing with Grace Kelly!

The last stops were in Riga, Latvia, and Tallinn, Estonia. We said goodbyes with teary eyes but only to get back together again! Soon!!
